Advanced Manufacturing ADVANCED MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY SNAPSHOT PERFECTLY POSITIONED Advanced manufacturing is a major driver of the Iowa economy, and the critical mass of expertise is well worth investigating for companies seeking a competitive advantage. Advanced manufacturing is Iowa’s largest industry contributing $30 billion annually to the state’s economy. That’s right, America’s largest producer of corn, pigs and eggs reaps twice as much from manufacturing than farming. • Manufacturing represents 17.4% of Iowa’s GDP (Bureau of Economic Analysis, 2018) • Iowa ranks seventh in the U.S. for percentage of GDP derived from manufacturing (Bureau of Economic Analysis, 2018) Iowa is ideally suited to export products all over the globe • In 2018, Iowa exported $18 billion worth of with air, water, rail and highway systems designed for manufactured and value-added goods (WiserTrade, commerce. Iowa’s central geographic location in North 2018) America makes it easier to move products around the world. Today, more than 6,000 manufacturers employ nearly 223,000 Iowans, representing 14% of Iowa’s Two major coast-to-coast, north to south interstate total workforce.
